"..." Julian coughed, eating quietly beside her.
Scarlett glanced at him, reached out, and gave him some of the vegetables Mrs. Rhodes had just given her. "Is that okay? Don't be upset, dear."
Julian looked at Scarlett and chuckled, "My wife's really great—only gives me food she doesn't like."
"..." Scarlett didn't look at him, nudging him with her elbow, "As long as you like it, it's fine."
As she finished, she noticed Mr. and Mrs. Rhodes watching her and Julian, making her wish she could find a hole to escape into.
...
Mr. Rhodes asked Julian, "How's work going lately?"
Julian replied, "It's pretty good. I don't have any surgeries scheduled for now, so it's quite relaxed."
"Well, arrange a meal with Old Zhang sometime. It's been a while since we last saw him."
Julian nodded, "Sure."
